So, it's no secret that the Linux desktop - at least, the GNOME-side of things - is a bit in a state of disarray. Unity hasn't exactly gone down well with a lot of people, and GNOME 3, too, hasn't been met with universal praise. So, what to do? Linux Mint, currently one of the most popular Linux distributions out there, thinks they are on to the solution with their latest release, Linux Mint 12.

Seriously, every time another distro moves to GNOME 3, it's like the end of the world all over again. Nobody has made a new argument about it in months - just beating a herd of dead horses. Use it, or don't, but stop being so butthurt about it.
